If you're looking for some unadulterated popcorn blockbuster fun and scares this summer it looks like The Meg is the monstrous movie just for you.

In this adaptation of Steve Alten's 1997 sci-fi book, Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror, Jason Statham, Ruby Rose, Rainn Wilson, Cliff Curtis and Li Bingbing face off against the largest shark that ever existed and thought to have been extinct for over two million years, a 75-foot-long megalodon.

Can this collection of research crew and diving teams 200 miles of the Chinese coast stop this giant prehistoric monster before it attacks the mainland and makes all the tourists, and them, lunch?
